Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I think it’s pretty clear we were 100% interested in Hincapie and probably did send an offer, but once it became clear Woolwich were going to gazump us again we went into PR SOS mode and started firing out info to journalists that we had no interest, no bid was made, we certainly haven’t been done by Woolwich again no sir no way no how.

You can read them like a book ffs.
 
Kane you believe it said:
VDV highly injury prone and our backup lcb is ben Davies who hasn't been at the required level for years

Personally I feel like VDV’s issues have been down to Ange going “Oh you’re really fast, you can be our whole defence right? Everytime they’re in behind, just sprint back, we’ll be fine.” I think he’s safer in Frank’s system(s).

Re: Davies; obviously he’s not up to it, which i said in the original post, but with Danso, Dragusin and Vuskovic (if he doesn’t go on loan) as CB depth and Spence/Udogie battling for LB how much will Davies really play?

Everyone knows our squad depth needs improvement, but I just don’t see ENIC spending £55m/€60m (which would be one of our highest transfer fees ever) on someone who likely won’t start.
 
We are definitely now at the stage of scrambling around trying to sign players desperately. No doubt about it.

Look at how other clubs identify their targets and get deals done in a deliberate and methodical way and compare to us. It’s mental

He would have started loads, we might have 60 games this season And VDVs hamstrings are made of glass.

We’ve been trying to sign Hincapie for ages. Of course we were in for him.

A starting attacker (10 or winger) moves the dial more than CB depth.

Absolutely cannot go into the season without an attacking upgrade otherwise we are completely fucked once Kudus tires.
